eineer Muzzy were severely shaken up but
no bones were broken. The passenger cars
and passengers are reported uninjured.
The accident will delay the trains three
hours. No one was seriously injured except
Baggage Master Moody and his injuries are
appal emily not fatal. Engineer Wallace
Ward of the freight left Montpelier Junction
without his conductor, who was in the tele-
graph office getting orders, and this careless
ness caused the collision. When the trains
met Engineer Muzzey having discovered the
approaching freight had slowed up, nearly
stopping, but the freight train was running at
the usual speed. The baggage car was tele-
scoped by the passenger engine tender, but
the shock to passengers was very slight. In
the rear car there were seven who were in
jured in the Hartford disaster. Their excite
ment for few moments was great
